Overview: Hermit of Peking is one of the most remarkable pieces of literary detection of recent years.It all began when Hugh Trevor-Roper acquired the voluminous memoirs of Sir Edmund Backhouse, uo till then known only as a distinguished Chinese scholar who had lived quietly until his death in 1944.The memoirs depicted a very different person - a man who said that he had been 'intimate' with many nobles, from Lord Rosebery to Verlaine, and whose lovers had included the Dowager Empress of China.
